Throughout the history of human beings, there have been countless wars among on, two or multiple countries, but only two of these have been dubbed "world" wars. Which leads me to my question, is there a specific set of demands that a war has to meet in order to be called a world war or is it decided conventionally?

A war is classified as a world war when a large number of countries spanning multiple continents are involved in the conflict. A better way of answering what classifies a world war may be to answer the question of what is a war. A war is a conflict between two nations, empires, ruling powers, or tribes. The key is that a war is between 2 parties while a world war involves many nations. Which also poses the question of why are the Korean and Vietnam wars not considered World Wars. The answer is quite simple the Korean war and the Vietnam war were "police actions" where major countries like the United States and the Soviet Union did not directly declare war on one another, but were only involved in the conflicts as a means of helping other nations.
One way to categorize waves is on the basis of the direction of movement of the individual particles of the medium relative to the direction that the waves travel.
Categorizing waves on this basis leads to three notable categories: transverse waves, longitudinal waves, and surface waves.
What is waves classified?
Waves come in two kinds, longitudinal and transverse. Transverse waves are like those on water, with the surface going up and down, and longitudinal waves are like of those of sound, consisting of alternating compressions and rarefactions in a medium.
